Clinical Pharmacist Support · Rotherham, South Yorkshire
Clinical Pharmacist Support for GP Practices in Rotherham
Blood pressure and diabetes registers that reward a team with time for them. Rotherham records blood pressure and diabetes above the England average across most of its practices. Our clinical pharmacists carry the review and monitoring workload that follows, remotely, inside your own clinical system.
The service is available to every practice and PCN in Rotherham, delivered remotely by our UK team inside your own clinical system. Cover never depends on who can travel, so the work is picked up to the same standard every week. We hold no premises in the town.

A borough between two bigger neighbours, planning for itself
Rotherham’s practices are commissioned by NHS South Yorkshire ICB, sitting between Sheffield to the west and Doncaster to the east, with its own place arrangements inside that board.
Blood pressure and diabetes registers both run above the England average here. Between them they generate a large, recurring body of titration, annual review and recall work, spread across a borough that reaches from the town out to former mining villages and the rural east.
That work is predictable, protocol-driven and easy to plan once someone owns it. Owning it is what we do, with the supervision and cover held on our side so a week of leave does not change the schedule.
What you buy is a managed service: supervision, cover, indemnity and clinical governance are all held by us. That is the practical difference between this and recruiting for the work yourself, and it is why the workstream keeps running whoever is available in a given week.

Blood pressure registers across Rotherham run significantly larger than the England average in many of its practices. The consequence is a large monitoring and titration workload, and more blood pressure recall than average.
Figures are the median across GP practices in the area against the England value, from NHS Fingertips (National General Practice Profiles, QOF 2024/25). Only differences flagged as statistically significant are shown. Published NHS data about the area, not a statement about which practices we work with.

Frequently asked questions
Do you have pharmacists based in this area?
No, and we do not claim to. Our pharmacists work remotely from across the UK, inside your clinical system. Nothing about the service depends on anyone being nearby, which is exactly why cover stays consistent: it never turns on who can travel on a given day.
Do you chase patients who do not respond to recall?
Yes. Chasing to completion is part of the workstream, not an optional extra, and it is usually where a practice sees the difference first.
Can a whole network commission this together?
Yes. Protocols are agreed once and audits run once for every practice in scope.
Can this be funded through ARRS?
In many cases, yes. ARRS funding covers roles brought in through a service contract as well as directly employed staff. We map it with you before you commit.
Who holds indemnity and supervision?
We do, for everyone delivering the work, under our published clinical governance framework.
